Mad about Ottawa Police inaction #OttawaSiege?
Who is in charge of the Ottawa Police and is the boss of @OPSChiefSloly? Who sets firm deadline and policy for him to enforce? @dianedeans of the Ottawa Police Service Board. 1
@OPSChiefSloly reports to the board and shall obey its lawful orders and directions. R.S.O. 1990, c. P.15, s. 41 (2). Chair @dianedeans and the board are responsible for “the provision of adequate and effective police services in the municipality and shall, 2
(c) establish policies for the effective management of the police force; (e) direct the chief of police and monitor his or her performance; Police Service Act: 31 (1) Police Service Act. Since Chair @dianedeans is not acting, can the other police board members do so? 3
Yes. There are 7 Board members, 3 appointed by the @Fordnation, 4 appointed by Ottawa City Council.
